ABSTRACT

The case material is a 15 months-old lovebird who performed hysteretomy operation for egg binding three months ago. Calcium gluconate (0.5 mg/100 g) and oxytocin (1 unit/kg) were administered intramuscularly after the lubrication of the cloacal opening. These applications yielded no results and attempts were made to remove the egg manually as a result of which the egg shell was broken. By considering the case's current condition and future life, treatment by hysterectomy was preferred. The surgical operation was successfully performed under general anesthesia. It was showed that although general anesthesia and surgical operations are risky in such cases, they can be successfully performed.

Key Words: Hysterectomy; Egg binding; Lovebird

 

ÖZET

AŞK KUŞUNUN (AGAPORNİS COMPRISE) YUMURTA TIKANIKLIĞI TEDAVİSİNDE HİSTEREKTOMİ OPERASYONU

Olgunun materyalini yumurta tıkanıklığı nedeni ile uç ay önce histeretomi operasyonu geçirmiş 15 aylık aşk kuşu oluşturdu. Kloakal açıklığın kayganlaştırılmasının ardından kuşa kalsiyum glukonat (0,5 mg/'l00 g) ve oksitosin (1 unit/kg) kas iii uygulandı. Bu uygulamalardan sonuç alınamadığı için yumurta elle çıkarılmaya çalışıldı. Bunun sonucunda yumurta kabuğunda kırılma meydana geldi. Olgunun durumu ve gelecek yaşamı göz önüne alınarak histerektomi operasyonu yapılmasına karar verildi. Operasyon genel anestezi altında başarıyla sonuçlandırıldı. Bu gibi olguların sağaltımında; genel anestezi ve cerrahi girişim riskli olduğu halde ameliyatın başarıyla uygulanabileceği gösterildi.
